    Although it would work in theory, unless you're already using it and are sure it works for you, I'm not big on it even with the addition of azelaic acid. Barring any allergies to it, Finasteride/Propecia is preferred.

    Do not use it as a sort of prevention - unless you want to use it forever. Otherwise you risk unpleasant shedding after the cessation of use.

    I have been using minoxidil for 18+ years and I know that if I stopped using it right now, I would look like Kojak within 4-5 months.

    There are practically only two ways, how to avoid hair loss during the use of steroids : Anavar and Deca .

    You can also use testosterone with finasteride or dutasteride, but I am afraid that the suppression of DHT won't be enough to compensate for the excessive testosterone levels .

    Alternatively, you can try SARMs or peptides.

    I dont really remember the exact science behind it,it was something related to conversion of deca to dhn and its blockage by finasteride,maybe someone will give more insight about this,but in case i will see hairloss i will start using finasteride fast

    Anavar and Deca prevent or cause hair loss?

    I already posted my experience with Anavar on other forums in the past. At 50 mg daily, my chronic problems with acne and seborrhoic dermatitis DISAPPEARED. This illustrates the incredible safety of this steroid , when viewed from the androgenic angle. In other words, when you are taking Anavar and your endogenous hormones are suppressed, the androgenic level in your body can be even lower than normally. It is also very safe on liver. But cholesterol is a different problem...

    And you are true with regard to Deca and finasteride. 5-AR blockers (finasteride, dutasteride) prevent Deca from converting to a less potent steroid (dihydronandrolone).

    If you want to be safe, you can take SARMs (Andarine, Ostarine), Anavar and peptides.

    But SARMs are a problematic group, too.
    First, Ostarine is liver toxic.
    Second, long-term sides of Andarine are unknown.
    Third, when I was taking Ostarine (10-15 mg/day), Andarine (30-40 mg/day) and finasteride together, I experienced a sudden regrowth of hair in temples after 16 years, but after I stopped using Andarine and Ostarine, the hair fell out and my hair loss resumed after 16 years again - despite using finasteride and minoxidil. It was a shock that it wouldn't wish to anyone. I thought that I was done and I would follow Kojak's route.

    Apparently, SARMs not only don't cause hair loss, but they work as competetive inhibitors of androgen receptors and PREVENT hair loss. However, they can upregulate your androgen receptors to such a degree that when you stop using them, the receptors can react inadequately even to relatively low androgen levels in your body.

    I must add that this reaction did not happen, when I was using Andarine solo twice before (50-60 mg/day). And it did not happen, when I was using Ostarine solo once before (25-35 mg/day). So it may have been the combination of these two that caused it.

    In any case, now I must take dutasteride and my wallet is bleeding. But thanks god, after 1,5 year I finally observe some decent regrowth in temples. I still have one bottle of Andarine and I will probably use it for a short 3-week cycle, but to be honest, I am afraid to use any steroidal types of drugs again. I will go with peptides.

    Apparently, SARMs not only don't cause hair loss, but they work as competetive inhibitors of androgen receptors and PREVENT hair loss. However, they can desentetize your androgen receptors to such a degree that when you stop using them, the receptors can react inadequately even to relatively low androgen levels in your body.

    I have used several peptide stacks and there is no way they even compare to steroids as far as mass gains. They have their benefits but muscle mass to any large degree is not one of them.

    So what are the average gains if everything is in check

    This cant be answered. There are many different stacks and everyone responds differently. I have no idea what you might gain any more than what I could say you would gain on a given steroid cycle. I will say this, if you run a GH type stack you have to run them for a long time, just like GH, if you expect significant lean body changes. Even still peps are like a low dose gh protocol at best, so it is not even like a higher dose gh protocol a competitive BB would run.

    I will tell you within 2 months. I am preparing for my first cycle with Ipamorelin
